KubeCon + CloudNativeCon India 2026

In this session, I’ll share how I validated support for the RK3588 ARM64 chip in KubeEdge—without using any physical hardware. Instead of relying on real devices, I built a simulation-based setup that mimics how an RK3588-powered edge node behaves inside KubeEdge.

I’ll walk through the practical steps: how the environment was emulated, how pods were tested, and how metrics, node status, and edge-core behavior were verified. Along the way, I’ll also highlight the challenges, what worked, what didn’t, and the key lessons that made the process smoother.

If you’re interested in edge computing, ARM devices, or contributing to KubeEdge without access to specialized hardware, this talk will give you a clear, realistic, and easy-to-follow blueprint.
